  1. what do you anticipate the Yankees will do this off-season no Harper signed a 1-year extension?
  2. Girardi wears his heart on his sleeve, this is nothing new if you're followed him over the years.
  3. A decade gap between Championships isn't acceptable for the Yankees, they'll definitely be signing 2 of the 3. Oddmakers already the Yankees as heavy favorites to sign Harper. At 10/3, the Yankees have better odds than the Los Angeles Dodgers (4/1), Harper's current team, the Washington Nationals (7/1), Boston Red Sox (9/1) and Phillies (10/1). http://www.nj.com/yankees/index.ssf/2016/04/oddsmaker_lists_yankees_as_favorites_to_land_bryce.html
  4. Glad to see this Team finally shift into rebuilding mode and saving money, they'll be ready to make a huge splash for the '19 season with the triple threat of signing Bryce Harper, Clayton Kershaw, and Manny Machado
  5. http://a1.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2016%2F0807%2Fr110973_1296x518_5%2D2.jpg&w=768&h=307&scale=crop&cquality=80&location=origin I think this is something both Yankees and Red Sox fans can celebrate together
  6. Terrible week for my fantasy team, had to drop both Harvey and Kimbrel and Carpenter went on the DL. Unreal
  7. Shoeless Joe Jackson
  8. Lmao, believe it not I like you despite being a Sox fan, you never fail to make me laugh.
  9. Guess it depends how deep your league is, on ESPN is ownership rate is only 50% , I dropped Puig for him
  10. Just snagged JBJ on the waiver wire on my fantasy team, woo.
  11. At least we won a World Series with the help of A-Rod, CC, and Tex.
  12. Who would you guys rather have on your fantasy team this year, Evan Longoria or Matt Carpenter?
  13. I understand it's not always easy to identify sarcastic comments posted online.
  14. Lol I wasn't actually being serious, I rooted for them in the World Series last year but at the end of the day I am and always be a Yankees fan. I would never attend a Mets game or purchase Mets merchandise, or root for them when they play the Yanks in the subway series.
  15. Yeah I decided to hop on the Mets bandwagon, they're a fun team to watch, can you blame me with how bad the Yankees are this year?
  16. Seems like this kid Michael Conforto is the real deal. http://media.fyre.co/v0HAjWJ0Tp6v9SKv9LQr_13076926_10208339717438277_927474537886362037_n.jpg
  17. This team is so awful I'd rather watch a Mets game over the 2016 Yankees.
  18. http://upl.stack.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/18110119/caseythrow.gif Casey Weathers is not a typical baseball prospect. To start, he's already 30 years old. In comparison, the Cleveland Guardians' most prized prospect over the past five years, Francisco Lindor, was 18 when he was drafted. Weathers was originally drafted eighth overall in the 2007 MLB Draft by the Colorado Rockies, ahead of San Francisco Giants ace Madison Bumgarner. A former standout at Vanderbilt University, Weathers could be found throwing 100-mph heat during his first full season in the minors at Tulsa (AA). But, as is common with pitchers who throw with that kind of velocity, Weathers had elbow trouble. He underwent Tommy John surgery in 2008, and due to complications, he was later forced to have another elbow operation. His velocity dropped to a top speed of 92 mph. At the end of the 2013 season, he was let go by the Chicago Cubs. After spring training the following year, he was cut by the San Francisco Giants. Rehabbing by throwing weighted balls at a facility called DriveLine near Seattle, Weathers slowly began to regain his velocity. After seeing a video of him hitting 105 mph on a "Pull Down Drill" (in which a pitcher executes a crow hop before throwing the ball as hard as he he can), the Guardians signed Weathers to a minor league deal in 2015. That year, he struck out more than a batter per inning, 55 in 49 1/3 innings to be exact, and attained a top speed of 97 mph. Which brings us to the above video of Weathers hitting 107.8 mph on a recent performance of the Pull Down Drill. We understand that the crow hop gives him momentum he wouldn't have on the mound. Still, his throw is 4 mph faster than the fastest pitch ever recorded in a game (103.9 mph by Aroldis Chapman); and the Pull Down Drill is used to improve arm speed on the mound, which Weathers said helped him immensely. (Even more impressive? With a running start, outfielder Carlos Gomez hit 103.1 mph throwing a ball from the outfield to home plate.) "I'm trying to recreate the stress that I'm going to see throwing max-intent in the game," Weathers told mlb.com. So, yeah, Weathers hitting 108 is a pretty big deal, and it might breathe new life into a career that looked all but over.
  19. No NFL team wants anything to do with Ray Rice now though, his career is over.
  20. Panda looking pretty fit
  21. That's nothing, this guy cut a BB bullet in half with a samurai sword
  22. Hey jacko what're your thoughts on Bryce Harper? he'll be a free agent after the 2018 season, and if the Yankees don't make any big signings they'll have a shitload of money to spend. http://a.espncdn.com/combiner/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2015%2F0611%2Fny_chart1_608x342.jpg&w=570
  23. wow 217 mill and 7 years for a 30 y/o pitcher with a 5.12 Postseason ERA?
  24. Any of you older Sox fans notice the similarities between this WS and the 1986 WS? Game 1 86/15 : Mets lose by 1 run Game 2 86/15 : Mets lose by 6 runs Game 3 86/15 : Mets win by 6 runs
  25. plus in LA the attention gets split between him and Kershaw, in Boston he'd be the sole ace and all eyes would be on him. Also a source close to Greinke speculated last week he “definitely wouldn’t want any more stress or additional media attention.”
